Transforming a Troublesome Crawlspace in Pen Argyl
Challenge
A homeowner in Pen Argyl, Pennsylvania, was grappling with a trifecta of crawl space woes: relentless moisture, oppressive humidity, and unsettlingly sagging floors. These conditions weren't just a nuisance; they posed a significant threat to the structural stability of the residence, fostered an uncomfortable living environment, and hinted at escalating energy expenses. Determined to find a lasting resolution, the homeowner contacted Liberty Basement Systems.
Their initial call was met by our dedicated Customer Care Specialist, who swiftly arranged a thorough inspection. Our experienced System Design Specialist then conducted a detailed evaluation of the crawl space, pinpointing the root causes of the problems and formulating a targeted plan to rectify the situation. The proposed solution strategically incorporated three of our cutting-edge products: CleanSpace, SmartJack, and Drainage Matting.
Solution
The transformation began with the installation of our CleanSpace® crawl space encapsulation system. This state-of-the-art system, featuring a robust 20-mil, 7-ply polyethylene liner infused with an antimicrobial finish, was expertly applied to create a formidable moisture barrier, effectively inhibiting mold and mildew growth for years to come.
To tackle the structural deficiencies, our team implemented the SmartJack® System. This meticulously engineered system provided robust support, effectively stabilizing the sagging floors and returning them close to their original, even plane. Complementing this, CleanSpace™ Drainage Matting was installed across the crawl space floor. This innovative matting, with its widened dimple design, facilitated efficient water management and directed any potential moisture towards a proper drainage solution.
The results were immediately apparent. The homeowner's crawl space was no longer a damp, musty liability but a clean, dry, and structurally sound space. The once-sagging floors were now stable and level, alleviating the homeowner's concerns about structural integrity. By addressing these critical issues, Liberty Basement Systems not only resolved the immediate problems but also significantly enhanced the home's overall comfort and energy efficiency.
